Hello Everybody!!!

With it being my birthday on Wednesday(27 years young) I decided to treat myself.....I am now a proud owner of a BMW Z4MC. Having purchased the car from fellow forum member donjon I am sure a lot of you will have seen this car before. I have been a member on forums throughout my ownership on all of my previous vehicles and as this is a forum car I fully intend on keeping it that way. After the 8 hour round trip yesterday I was a bit tired having been up from 4am due to the excitement of going to look at the car therefore I had an early night and decided to wait until today before introducing myself to the forum. I have moved over to the Z4 from a FN2 Civic Type-r. As you can imagine the drive is completely different and I took it very easy on my way home yesterday with this being my first RWD motor! Think it will be a while before I feel like pushing it a bit more. I have always been up for meets in the past and I am sure the future will be no different. I have just spent a small fortune on some detailing products which should be arriving in the next few days so expect more pictures in the near future. Here is a list of the modifications for the people that don't know the car:

Gruppe M Induiction kit.
Stoptech trophy Big Brake Kit front and rear with 380mm Disk upgrade.
Ground control adjustable coilovers with adjustable top mount plates
full supersprint powerloop system including the manifold
genuine 19" CSL wheels with Michelin pilot super sports
wheel stud to nut conversion
UUC lightened flywheel
Rougue engineering trailing arm bush limiters
turner adjustable camber arms
clutch stop
sports clutch
CSL schrick cams
remap to 370bhp
Strongstrut 3piece strutbrace
RPI scoop
UUC lightened pulleys

There are probably more but I cant think of them off the top of my head. Am I able to get a locking nut for the stud to nut conversion? Dont fancy these wheels going missing.

:worthless:

Good on you for uploading some pics! Pleasure to deal with you too mate look after her and enjoy, it really is a blast to drive once you have the feel of it. Should keep your dads aston very honest too! :driving:
 
Awesome looking car mate! Only saw donjon, thread the other day, was drooling as I was reading it! :) stunning mods already on it, and very well looked after by someone with great knowledge by all accounts!

Welcome to the forum and very much looking forward to more photos and seeing what else you do with the car :thumbsup:
 
Donjon just looked at your ad for the car, and wow you're right, it's got a hellovalorra kit on it.....Tom it's a great car and I am very very jealous!! 370 Bhp!! Wow
 
top car with some REALLY nice mods on it, nothing on their at all to detract from the original mantra of the vehicle and has some flaws ( brakes) addressed.... REALLY nice car that one, with that mod list that will be punching well into serious car territory performance wise.

Donjon.... this will be a hard car to upgrade from, and costly.

Not upgrading mate, I think I peaked with this. Paid off all my debts and am looking to get back in my VAG group cars. Although e39 m5s are good value at the moment!
